Verdict

IL PASSERO (3) progressive gelding kept fresh for this after scoring an emphatic victory over 6 ¼f at Newcastle on February 14. Carries the big weights well and shapes as a genuine top-three prospect. C'MON MATE (4) had no choice but to go back from the outside barrier with a plugging seventh over 6 ½f at Kembla Grange. Will appreciate the 7lbs claim from the good gate and represents good each-way value over his pet trip. LONE ARTIST (6) showed a ton of grit off the let-up with a fighting on-pace fourth over 6 ½f at Kembla Grange. Fitter now and gets a more economical run today. Respect. VETWELVE (1) total forgive over the unsuitable 5f first-up with a struggling ninth over 5f at Randwick in BM72 class. Out to his right journey and can make sharp improvement.
